Business Outlook

Pros

Nice company culture. Mostly European management. Nice tools and facilities to do your job.

Cons

Remote management from managers is sometimes an issue where same manager is taking care of multiple international projects and travels a lot. This means that you are on your own for most of the times.

Pros

My immediate bosses are great.

Cons

No trust in employees by HR or senior management. Zero written HR policies to back up mandates. 50% office requirement, but office internet has the speed and reliability of 90s dial-up. No internal training on policies, procedures, or technology. Low morale with no effort for improvement.
